They have a lot of different size pots and designs. They have very good customer service, willing to assist. Some plants are well price and others are a little bit more expensive but because of their rare uniqueness so if it's what you're looking for, don't mind paying for the price. Love their metal urns and and garden figurines.

Highland is my favorite nursery in the Cities; they have a huge selection, from perennials to…read moreannuals to veggies to trees to houseplants, & everything always looks SO healthy. They also have a huge store inside with more colors & varieties of pots than you could ever want, plus assorted other supplies and knick knacks. I would say price-wise, they're about on par with other standalone nurseries (forget box store prices for gnat-infested plants that die within a month); they do have a wide selection of cheaper, smaller plants as well. Everyone who's ever helped me at Highland, from folks working outside to the checkout clerks, has always been so kind & super helpful. Everyone either seems to know everything, or they can at least direct you to someone who has the answers. My only gripes are: the parking lot is small & people don't always navigate it in the most efficient way; there's plenty of street parking, though, which I usually opt for instead. Pushing a car through the yard isn't always the easiest, so folks with mobility concerns should keep that in mind. That being said, I'm almost positive one of the lovely employees would help if you need it :) This nursery rocks & I can't recommend it enough!

We typically lean towards Seed Savers for heirloom, non-GMO, organic seeds. Eggplant carries those too!

The staff is knowledgeable & patient - they take the time to help you make good choices. The store is a delight. From cookbooks to fermentation and canning. Mushroom blocks.

They seemed like the go-to place and I have not been disappointed! It was so easy to order chicks and supplies and everyone has been SO friendly. My girls are about 6 weeks now but when they were a few weeks old I reached out to EggPlant in a panic because I thought one was going to be a rooster. Jessika took the time to talk me down and listen to what I was seeing - she eased my mind but also let me know what they could do if one did turn out to be a male (which you can't have in the city). All in all, I think my little Lottie just matured faster than her hatch-mates but I am glad to know I can contact EggPlant for whatever I need for them going forward. They were really hands-off once you picked up your chicks but very responsive if you need help with them.

It is at a busier cross section so be sure to watch before you cross! I wanted to make a pit stop to check out Mother Earth Gardens, what started as a quick stop, has me excited to come back again when I have more time! I wasn't expecting the community collaboration that showcased local vendors and information about them which I loved dearly. The plants were placed in a manner that was fun to browse and find, and the pricing was fair. What made me really see this place stand out was the service I received from start to finish. I was warmly greeted, the door was opened for me and I was asked right away if there was anything I needed help with. In addition, they included that any question is welcomed and not to be afraid to ask. No matter if you're a beginner or an expert in the plant community, there's so much to learn and feeling the welcoming environment made it so much more enjoyable to browse and shop. If you're thinking of stopping in, I would recommend it!

However, some other plants are a bit pricey because they're a very small sore.. They have a good amount of different parts outside. I think the summer with the warm weather coming up, they would have more yard decorations on display outside plus more plants.
